Association of Coronary Vessel Characteristics With Outcome in Patients With Percutaneous Coronary Interventions With Incomplete Revascularization

Association of Coronary Vessel Characteristics With Outcome in Patients With Percutaneous... Key PointsQuestionAre some patients undergoing incomplete revascularization (IR) with percutaneous coronary interventions at higher risk than others? FindingsIn this registry-based study, patients with IR in a vessel with at least 90% stenosis were at higher risk than other patients with IR. More than 20% of all patients with percutaneous coronary interventions had IR of 2 or more vessels, and more than 30% had IR with more than 90% stenosis. MeaningPatients with percutaneous coronary interventions with IR are at higher risk of mortality if they have IR with at least 90% stenosis, IR in 2 or more vessels, or proximal left anterior descending artery IR. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png JAMA Cardiology American Medical Association

Abstract

Key PointsQuestionAre some patients undergoing incomplete revascularization (IR) with percutaneous coronary interventions at higher risk than others? FindingsIn this registry-based study, patients with IR in a vessel with at least 90% stenosis were at higher risk than other patients with IR. More than 20% of all patients with percutaneous coronary interventions had IR of 2 or more vessels, and more than 30% had IR with more than 90% stenosis. MeaningPatients with percutaneous coronary interventions with IR are at higher risk of mortality if they have IR with at least 90% stenosis, IR in 2 or more vessels, or proximal left anterior descending artery IR.
